The Professional Builders Secrets Podcast brings together some of the best minds in the industry along with professional builders to share their experiences in residential construction and provide insightful tips to builders on how to operate and grow their business.
The team behind The Professional Builders Secrets Podcast release episodes weekly. Each episode is packed with helpful recommendations from industry experts on how to run a successful building company covering a range of topics including sales, marketing, financials and operations.
The podcast series begins with the story behind the Association of Professional Builders, where co-founders Russ and Sky Stephens explain what led them to launch their company that is dedicated to improving the construction industry for both builders and consumers.
Throughout the series, the Professional Builders Secrets podcast explores construction software innovation, managing client expectations, the importance of key performance indicators (KPI’s), the most misunderstood calculation in a builder’s financial reports: The Work In Progress Accounting Adjustment (WIPAA), the new marketing process for builders, how professional builders price their jobs, the proven sales process for builders and SO much more!
At APB, we provide builders with the training and mentorship they need to grow their building company safely and securely. We offer a range of services to custom home builders and remodelers to help them sign more contracts, at higher margins and improve the overall experience for their clients.
We want our community of builders to have every advantage at growing their building company, which is why every year we launch an annual industry report on the State Of Residential Construction Industry so builders can benchmark their building company against their competitors and gain insight into what’s really going on behind closed doors in residential construction.
In addition to this, we wrote the builders bible on running a successful building company. In our freshly launched book, Professional Builders Secrets, we share the systems that successful builders across Australia, New Zealand, Canada, and the United States are implementing into their building companies.
Inside this book, builders can find the actual systems and processes that we created after working with hundreds of builders in dozens of niches and perfecting what we know works.
To complete the ultimate builder’s toolkit of resources for running a successful building company, The Professional Builders Secrets Podcast provides an additional resource to those builders who might prefer to digest their information through listening or are keen to learn everything they need to know about running a successful building company.
